Band name backstory: Willy thought of it because he is a super-genius. We all thought it was kind of sexy, so it stuck.

Sell yourself in 20 words or less: Our songs are under two minutes; we record our own records on a boom box.

Day job: Unemployment checks and waiting for Obama stimulus checks.

What book are you reading? "Martian Time-Slip," by Philip K. Dick.

Favorite film: "RoboCop 2."

Unofficial band beverage: Tap water.

First gig: It was in October at the Vault with Bellybutton and No People, both from Japan.

Worst gig: We played with nu-psych kingpins Cave in Chicago at Rotten Milk's going-away show, but right before their set Willy's hand was sliced open with a beer bottle during some offstage high jinks. We had to rush him to the ER for a handful of stitches, and by the time we got back Cave had already played and the party was over. Total bummer!

Weirdest fan encounter: We don't have any fans yet, but it would be weird to encounter one.

Song you've written that you're most proud of: We have a song that sounds like "Louie Louie."

Favorite cover song in your show: "Sister" by Prince.

Biggest band achievement: Learning seven songs in a night, playing them at the Cactus Club the following day, and then the day after that, recording them for our tape split with Pigs on Ice.
